So i will do some super rough calculations.
Gpu mining solar panels.
I always was trying to waste my electricity in the summer with my one little 80 watt solar panel.
That s quite a lot of energy about a third of the homes in san jose.
Hey guys i m not that new to mining as i understand everything around but i just wanted to know what are the returns you guys are getting on gpu and is it worth buying it now and setting it up as my setup would cost around 1600 usd something like a nvidia 1060 with an i 7 processor but here s the thing it s gonna.
It also takes cheap electricity to make a profit in mining right now.
6 gpu rig with solar power.
Enjoy the rewards while they last.
In most places in us the power from solar energy you can get on an average day is about 5 kwh m 2 day 1.
Stage 1 3 completed thanks to community for their support more gpus on the way.
The lifespan of a gpu when mining 24 7 will be down to the fan speed.
At this rate the bitcoin network runs at 342934450 watts which equates to around 343 megawatts.
Gpu mining and hope you all actually stay and contribute to the community.
Ok about 1 278 times a day we have ourselves a solar mining post.
Coinmine s specs are middling.
Solar panels and mining.
You re definitely going nowhere with gpu based mining.
It uses less power than a playstation 4 at 120 watts and its gpu mining is usually demanding on your graphics card is an amd radeon rx570 a card you d find in a college student s entry level gaming tower.
Free power clean air and a beautiful world.
When i say rough i mean rough the idea is so terrible i can be off a lot and still be fine.
However if your fans are at 100 to do this then the bearings will wear out at some point.
As pcs consume a huge lot of energy and those who don t are equipped with atom and intel graphics meaning mining won t get you far with that equipment.
Well solar is a terrible idea to ponder about mining all types of solar mass produced today.
That means that the wattage you get out of the solar panels is aro.
If you keep the gpu limited to below 70c perhaps higher it will be fine even for extended periods of time.
It largely depends on what machine you want to power with those solar panels.
Calculations based on eia data reveal that the average us household consumes about 1 2 kilowatts of power meaning that 343 megawatts would be enough to power 285 833 us homes at the time of writing may 2015.
